Hey folks! Vlog #2 above… eek! If you didn’t see my first one, I shared a video at the end of last year about how much I wanted to support The Dogs Trust for my birthday. This time I’m chatting to you about how important it is to have the right bed, mattress and pillows to get a good nights sleep.. and if you can’t, Time4Sleep sent me a little box of pamper products to make it at least look like I have ;)
So if you don’t want to watch the video or you’d like a little recap, here are my top tips for getting a good nights sleep:
// Invest in a good mattress. Things things are expensive for a wee self employed lass like myself, but do not underestimate the power of a good mattress. Don’t end up in the hospital with a bad back like I did!
// Spend time picking out the right pillows. Do you sleep on your stomach? Back? Pick one that helps you, not hinders.
// Have a good ol’ cup of tea before bed. If you’re affected by caffeine, choose a caffeine free option of either decaff or a fruity tea.
// Have a ‘getting ready’ period before your actual bedtime. Don’t plan to go to bed at 11pm and then spend half an hour having a wash and getting organised.
// Do something relaxing. Watch some comforting DVDs or read a book before sleep. Don’t work!!
// If you’re not into beauty creams and crazy formulas, at the very least take off your make-up and put on a good moisturiser.
Time4Sleep have a really informative guide of what happens to your body during sleep, have a peek!
I hope you found some good information on getting the best rest! What are your top tips for feeling refreshed after sleeping?
